    I did a misstake, by opened a new blog under my account. Now I have difficulties moving between the two.
    Though I had the same gmail, for bouth blogs, it messed up sp now I put a + in the mailadress, as I read in FAQ, But what I wanted was to be able to change the avatar, so it shouldn´t be the same in the blogs.

    But now I have the new one, as should be for my swedish WPc help blog, in my other ordinary blog too.

    Is it any way I can split the two to diffrent accounts?

    In order for both blogs to be seperate and have a different avatar for each, you need to have the blogs under 2 seperate accounts. If you created the blog under your main account, it will always show up with the avatar for the username. The FAQ trick with the email address and the + is so that you can create a completely new account and still have the same email address. If that blog you created is on your main login username, the only thing you can do is the following:

    1) Create a new username after logging out your current user back at the homepage of wordpress.com (just user, not user and a new blog)

    2) Logout of that new user account that you just created and back in with your original account. Go to the admin of the new blog your created and then to USERS section. Scroll down to “add a user from the community”. Add the email address with the + that you used for the new account you created and add them to the blog as an administrator

    3) Logout of the first user and back in as your new user and you will find that you now are the administrator of the second blog!

    Then you can create a new avatar for the new user for that blog and you should be set! The FAQ that can be used for reference of transferring blog to another user is here!

    Good luck!
